ETAPS 2012 main conferences Mon-Fri 26-30 March will take place in Swissotel Tallinn (Tornimäe 3) in the new city of Tallinn. Swissotel is at walking distance from all central hotels and the Old Town.

ETAPS 2012 satellite workshops Sat-Sun 24-25 March and Sat-Sun 31 March-1 April wil take place in the campus of the Tallinn University of Technology (TUT), in the building of the Tallinn School of Economics and Business Administration, Building X of TUT (Akadeemia tee 3). The campus of TUT is 7 kms from the city center, but easily reached by public transport.

You can get to the TUT campus by trolleybuses no. 3 (stop "Keemia", closest), no. 4 (stop "Ehitajate tee", almost as close), no. 1, 2, 5 (stop "Akadeemia tee", furthest). All these trolleybuses go every 10..15 minutes, also on Saturday and Sunday mornings. The travel time is about 25 minutes, depending on the line and where exactly you get on the trolleybus. NB. Route numbers for bus, tram and trolleybus lines overlap, so trolleybus line no. 2 is not the same as bus no. 2 or tram no. 2.

The banquet Wed 28 March will take place at the Song Festival Grounds (Lauluväljak, Narva mnt 95) in Kadriorg.

The pre-conference workshops dinner Sun 25 March will be at Restaurant Maikrahv (Raekoja plats 8) in the heart of the Old Town.

The post-conference workshops dinner Sat 31 March will be at Olde Hansa (Vana turg 1), Tallinn's medieval restaurant, only a few steps from the Town Hall square. The CMCS dinner Sat 31 March will be at MEKK Ateljee in Hotel Bern (Aia 10), just outside the Old Town.

The banquet and workshop dinners are not included in the main conference or workshop registration fees.

All social events will begin at 20.00. Please have the event ticket with you.

All social event places, except for that for the Banquet--the Song Festival Grounds--, are within walking distance from all central hotels. The Song Festival Grounds is about 3 kms from the city centre.
